Painted with acrylic paint mixed with textile medium, using a stippling brush, in stripes of colour from white to deep sea green. Next step is to sew up the legs to make the bag shape.I liked the painted effect so much I almost put the jeans back in my wardrobe to wear them again!News on the paint-covered jeans from my artist friend -- he threw the last pair out! After promising them to me and everything! As consolation, he gave me a shirt, and promised to have one last look through his rag bag for the jeans. The shirt will make some great applique fabric for my bag, though.
